Joe Jackson Says Azz Whoopins Kept Michael Outta Gangs

Azz whoopin’s are the new gang busters. Only a week after The King Of Pop’s birthday, Jo Jackson has come out to say that beatin’ Mike’s azz actually saved him.

The interview with Joe was shot by Jacksonsecretvault.com over the summer and will be used as part of a movie Katherine Jackson is producing with Howard Mann.

In the clip, an interviewer asks Joe what he thinks about Michael’s past comments about Joe’s parenting — alluding to allegations of physical abuse. Joe says, “I had to be like that because when raising him, in those days, so many gangs out there getting into trouble, going to jail. Most of them are dead now. He didn’t have to worry about that.”

The interviewer also asked if Joe had any regrets, “No! They tried to make a big issue when I spanked Michael or some of the kids, ya know? Just like they didn’t spank their kids when they did wrong. The media twists everything.”

We’re not so sure about that one Joe… Maybe it wasn’t the azz whoopins that kept him out of gangs. Maybe his desire to escape them encouraged him to work hard and get away from yo crazy azz. Just sayin.
